I couldn't find any reference to FreeCRT on the search engines. I did try PuTTY and I like the look but it doesn't seem to do X forwarding. TeraTERM can X forward and it will also forward any other port. So you can set it to use you favorite client pointed to localhost. Then with ssh forwarding setup the client will get it's information from the system you are connected to via ssh. TeraTERM does use a setup program but it writes all the files to the subdirectory you set. I doesn't need to write any files to system directories.
